Re: changing from nutri-meds porcine to efra

[Guest guest]

Hi

I have just joined this forum in despair having suffered with thyroid

problems for years. Been on 225 mg thyroxine and feel awful. Have tried

to ask my GP about different forms of treatment but met a brick wall and

wondered how you managed to get hold of the Nutri Meds Porcine

medication? I am desperate to try this since one of my sister in laws

from Australia had very similar problems until she tried it and was

transformed. If you can let me have any details of getting hold of this

medication would be so grateful. p.s. Have no idea what efra is - can

you enlighten me at all? I am asuming you are in the UK?

with 'Nutri-Meds Porcine Throid'. Side effects from 'Levothyroxine'

disappeared immediately on their cessation. Built up Nutri-Meds slowly

to 5 tablets a day with great improvement.
